WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama will travel to Colorado on Sunday to visit with victims of the movie theater shooting and their families.
White House communications director Dan Pfeiffer announced plans for the trip on Saturday night. Aides say will also include meetings with state and local officials.

Let me guess, they will “ask” him to enact more gun control.
1. Arizona was a “political rally” not a memorial service. There were political T-Shirts on every seat at the University of Arizona! Some of the attendees hooted and applauded. Absolutely disgusting! I'm surprised POTUS and his party DemocRATS did not remember the backlash from Senator Paul Wellstone’s memorial service.
2. Where was POTUS during the recent devastating Colorado wildfire? The same place during the BP oil rig disaster in the Gulf of Mexico — missing in action! Not even “leading from behind.”
3. So we know that POTUS speechwriters lack any imagination or originality and routinely recycle his speeches. Will POTUS call for “civility” like he did in Arizona:
“And so deserving of our good example. If this tragedy prompts reflection and debate, as it should, let’s make sure it’s worthy of those we have lost. Let’s make sure it’s not on the usual plane of politics and point scoring and pettiness that drifts away with the next news cycle.”

“I believe we can be better. Those who died here, those who saved lives here – they help me believe. We may not be able to stop all evil in the world, but I know that how we treat one another is entirely up to us. I believe that for all our imperfections, we are full of decency and goodness, and that the forces that divide us are not as strong as those that unite us.”

So the BIG QUESTION — Will he direct any of his remarks to his henchmen/henchwomen — Axlerod, Pflouffe, Cutter, etc? Will they listen?!
Colorado celebrates the Second Amendment, Chicago detests it. Obama needs the White Folk Vote in Colorado while the Black Folk and Liberals in Chicago would Vote for him if he enjoyed Drowning Kittens after a hard day of Golf.
Please give a salute to this young man and a hug to his mom.
And a thank you to the folks who help him.
Tell him that we are grateful.
Thank you for this story.
Courage.
Chicago Jesus gonna pardon him?
Campaigning, nothing more. On your dime, too.
I want to wake up one day and find this was all a bad dream, but know it will not be so..
Will he ever apologize to the parents of Brian Terry?
This is pure bullshit grandstanding. Obamugabe isn’t a compassionate caring person, never has he done this in the past.
He gets zero points from me for this.
I’m sure Obama thinks he really “lucked out” on this one. To him, this is even “better” than Fast and Furious.
